Old Maid

Conversation I had last night at work with a tourist:
Old man in wheelchair: That hairstyle looks good on you.
Me: :) Thank you
Old man in wheelchair: How old are you? 19?
Me: No I'm 25
Old man in wheelchair: Whoa! You're an old maid already!
Me: :( ...thanks.

I wasn't offended. I laughed. Besides it was ironic to me because where does he get off calling me an old maid when he's sitting there old and broken like a prehistoric dinosaur?! haha I can't really be mad at old people. It's like they've lived their life and now they have a free pass to say, and sometimes do, whatever they feel like. They're exempt from the social norms. Old people are so delightful. I can't wait to be one.
